Kelly Osbourne: I 'f--d up' by comparing Latinos to toilet scrubbers
New York Post ^ | August 4, 2015 | Derrick Bryson Taylor

Kelly Osbourne is admitting she “f—-d up” big time.

On Tuesday’s episode of “The View,” Osbourne made an inflammatory comment about Latinos while trying to bash presidential candidate Donald Trump.

Discussing his proposed immigration policy, Osbourne blurted out, “If you kick every Latino out of this country, then who is going to be cleaning your toilet, Donald Trump?”

Immediately afterward, an unsettled feeling came over the panel and it appeared as though Osbourne realized she had just put her foot in her mouth.

Osbourne later told Page Six, “I want to start by saying I always take responsibility for my actions. In this particular case I will take responsibility for my poor choice of words but I will not apologize for being a racist as I am not. I whole-hearted(ly) f—-d up today. I don’t want to bulls–t anyone with lame excuses.”

My Sophomore and Junior years in college, I lived in World War II surplus barracks the university had originally bought and put up to house veterans, and continued to use after the peak of veteran students had passed. To pay for my room I had a job as janitor in my barracks. I cleaned toilets, scrubbed sinks, swept and mopped the common-area floors, and made sure the showers worked. It was honest work, and I didn't find it degrading. I don't see that we need illegals to do that kind of work.

Uh, saying that you are not a racist is a lame excuse.

Is Kelly Osborn supposed to be someone with an important opinion? Never heard of her, but scrubbed my own toilets many times.

I don’t fault Trump for his comments, and I don’t trash her for her’s, based on slips of the tongue intended to exploit a racial narrative.

I know what she meant, and I think you do too. I didn’t think she was of the opinion that all Latinos scrub toilets for a living, anymore than I thought Trump meant all Mexican’s here illegally were rapists.

I don’t think her comments were worthy of a political discussion, because U. S. Citizens can do those jobs just as easily as foreign nationals can. Pay them an attractive wage and they’ll do it.

Another part of her lunacy, is that as wealthy as she is, she still wants to find people who will work for rock bottom wages. There’s something fundamentally wrong with that.

Pay what the legal U. S. Citizen employment market will bear. Quit demanding someone work for illegal foreign national level wages.

Quit employing people because you can blackmail them by threatening to report them to ICE.

These Leftists are pretty big on talk of being fair to others, then taking advantage of them in their own lives.

This little princess grew up rich,she was just speaking from experience. Maybe just a tinge of white privilege guilt?

Blacks are helpless infants in need of democrats to take care of them.

Ouch. Given the propensity of the Democrat supported 'Planned Parenthood' to murder a disproportionate number of helpless black unborn babies ... I can just say, 'ouch' to your remark about the Democrats 'taking care of them'. That they do. But not in a good way.

I scrub my own toilets, and speaking as a member of the toilet-scrubbing community, we need a voice in Washington. Our demand is simple: get rid of low flow toilets.

Hard to say which I’d prefer:

An illegal toilet scrubber who breeds?
Or Ozzy Osbourne breeding?

I would know God was mad at me if I were castaway on a desert island with a young lady and it turned out to be her.

“I’m bored. I’m hungry. I miss my Mexican maid. There’s nothing to do. Get me a coconut. I miss my I-phone. Don’t you miss anything?”

“Duct tape.”

It is kind of funny that her bashing backfired on her I wish it would happen to more Democrats more often. Although I doubt she even votes or is registered as such.

Losing the Great War is a bitch, baby.
